This is an excellent modern twist on the traditional pound cake recipe. It's very easy to make, as it starts with a standard cake mix and will stay moist for several days.

Ingredients:

1 (500g) box Duncan Hines all butter cake mix (substitute butter for the shortening in the basic mix)
4 large eggs
180ml vegetable oil
100g granulated sugar
240ml sour cream (or substitute 240ml double cream with 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice mixed in)
1 tsp vanilla extract
icing sugar

Method:

Combine the cake mix, oil, sour cream and sugar in a bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine then add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly to mix in after each addition then beat in the vanilla extract.

Grease a bundt cake tin then coat the inside with icing sugar. Turn in the batter then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 175°C and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the top of the cake is golden and springy and a skewer inserted into the centre emerges cleanly.

Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then loosen with a spatula, turn onto a wire rack and allow to cool completely. Transfer to a serving plate, dust with icing sugar and serve.
